2 Thessalonians 2:15
Douay-Rheims
Therefore, brethren, stand fast; and hold the traditions which you have learned, whether by word, or by our epistle.
John Chrysostom
"Whereunto He called you through our Gospel to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ."
This too is no little thing, if Christ considers our salvation His glory. For it is the glory of the Friend of man that they that are saved should be many. Great then is our Lord, if the Holy Spirit so desires our salvation. Why did he not say faith first? Because even after sanctification we have yet need of much faith, that we may not be shaken. Seest thou how He shows that nothing is of themselves, but all of God?
